STARTLING!

WE ASSERT THIS STARTLING FACT:
w We can prove by our books that three
out OF every five persons that consume a case
of the famous -f;rNA MINERAL WATERS re-
ceiye direct and certain benefit, for our ledger
shows that three out of every five that purchase
the first case return for the second third. fourth
and fifth, many of them continuing its use in
definitely. II is certain specific for Liver and
Kidney Disorders, Dyspepsia and Rheumatism.
This is not merely statement, but TACT estab-
lished by our sales, i'll hundreds of instances of
over twenty consecutive cases TO the same per
son. Another significant evidence lies in the
fact that although the astonishing effect of these
mineral waters was not generally known on the
subject OF public discussion till within the last
three months, yet within that time, in fact since
April lith last the sales have increased till they
are now eight times whatthey were at that date.
Hundreds attest its marvellous curative proper
ties, but We have only room here for few
names of persons who from experience assert
its efficacy

A Homeless Mother and Her Babes
Caught In a Storm.
NoGALEs, August 1Sth.-Terriic gales, accom-
panied by heavy rain and hail-storm, passed
over Calabasas, ten miles west of Nogales at
noon yesterday. Mrs. Manuel Quigada, widow
lwhose husband was murdered last June by
Monaghan, the mail contractor), with her three
children, had taken refuge in an unoccupied
store, being driven from their home by the re-
cent floods.
The wind completely demolished the build
ing, burying the family in the ruins. The wind
blew in the front OF the store, when the mother,
with baby i'll her arms followed by her other
two Children and years old-started to go
out OF the rear of the building, and had just
reached the door, when the rear and side walls
fell.
The smaller girl was injured by falling brick
and died soon after being dug out. The other
gill was badly stunned and bruised, but it is
thought that she will recover. The baby was
hit in the head by brick, but was wrapped up
SO that it sustained no serious injury.
Mrs. Quigada was badly hurt about the head
and face, but not dangerously. The halstones
that fell during the storm were the largest ever
seen in this part of the country.
A Possible Clue to the Authors of a For
mer Train Robbery.
Copyright, 1887, by The Cal1ormtu Assoeiaed Press
TUCSON, August 1sth.-Antonio Grijalva, from
whom $50 was obtained by Ignaco Gomez-as
mentioned in yesterdays dispatch-came to
town last night, aud hearing of Gomez impris-
and made sworn statement exonerating the
boy and himself from having obtained the
money from the train robbers. The boy, Gomez,
it appears, raised field of grain on the old Nc
Cormiek ranch, on the San Pedro. This grain
he sold to Thomas Dunbar, but Dunbar could
not pay him at the time Gomez worked for Girl
jalva, and while so employed Dunbar sent the
money to Grijalya to pay Gomez He sent two
bills, one $40 and $50. The $50 bill Grijalva gave
Gomez, and retained SO himself.
This latter bill is now in possession of the of
fcers. Like the $50, it has been taken from
Wells, Fargo d Co.'S envelopes, as the needle
marks are very plain. Dunbar will now be
called upon to explain. This he can do, un-
doubtedly, as he is an old and well-known citi-
zen of Tres Alamos.
MAY DEVELOP A CLUE.
The money was paid Grijalva about four days
previous to the last robbery. Consequently it
can have no connection with it, hut the officers
think that possibly 1t is portion of the proceeds
of the first hold-up. Sheriff Shibell, now sup
posed to be in Tucson, has been wired to go to
Tres Alamos and interview Dunbar.
